Constraction reviews in Newton, Massachusetts

National Lumber and Stumpo Development have partnered together for over 30 years. By choosing high quality building products and ensuring a timely ordering process, Cindy and her team have consistently delivered projects on time and I highly recommend her for anyone looking for a luxury property in the Brookline/Newton area.

Cindy is a top class builder! She makes the process extremely effortless from start to finish and to top it all she provides on going support for house maintenance! Don’t know of another builder that calls their clients to get snow off the roofs after a crazy storm!!! She is the best out there!

Have you ever run across a builder with a collection of Birkin bags? Have you ever run across a builder that is more deserving of these luxury handbags? Have you ever met a builder that works harder than Cindy who works seven days a week?

When Cindy builds your house not only is she your contractor but she becomes your friend. My house was built twenty plus years ago and I still call Cindy my friend and my builder. Why is she still my builder? Because she continues to fix anything that needs to be addressed and she’s at our house immediately. Even though she has gone on to build massive homes she gives us the same attention.

Is there anything negative you could say about Cindy? Yes, her hashtags need work!

We had the pleasure of building our house last year with Cindy.

She is dedicated, detail oriented, and passionate about her work. She is a constant advocate for you. You feel (and are) in safe hands and are constantly reassured of that fact throughout every stage of the process.

A consummate professional, behind whose sometimes gruff exterior lies a heart of gold, delivered a product of which we are extremely proud and grateful.

We are thankful to have found such wonderful partner for this adventure.

Cindy has done an amazing job running a job down in Fort Lauderdale for us. It’s a 9,200 sq foot home on the Intercoastal that was in need of an overall update while staying under budget. With her being 1200 miles away back in Massachusetts it has surely been a challenging task to say the least but she took on the responsibly without any hesitation. She has been a great help with design, costs, and overall project control. We cannot wait to see the finished product and hope to work together down here for years to come !

No one can compare to Cindy’s work. She is a perfectionist and settles for nothing less than perfect on all of her homes. She gives her personal guarantee on all work. You won’t find that anywhere else, even years later, you call her and she is there. Rare find in today’s industry.

Proud to have had Cindy Stumpo / C.Stumpo Development build my house. I researched and interviewed several builders and Cindy’s reputation and attention to detail was why I chose her. She was always available to answer my questions and her work was impeccable. We are thrilled with the work she has done.
Her team and workmen were courteous and conscientious. I highly recommend C.Stumpo Development for your build.

We reached out to Cindy because of a small problem with a door: she immediately responded and sent help the very next morning. "No big deal, you say?" Well, the kicker to the story is that it's been 19 years (!) since Cindy built our house. It's tough to put a price on that sort of amazing follow-through. Thank you!

Loved working with C Stumpo Development! Cindy’s ability to connect with her clients, attention to detail and work ethic are inspiring. Each member of her team shares a unique sense of pride in creating and delivering exceptional quality and service. Samantha was a joy to work with and made our experience stress free.
I enthusiastically recommend Cindy and her entire team for your home development needs!

Cindy came in as a highly regarded reference from multiple sources. Our friends couldn't stop raving about her. So I called her up and within minutes Cindy had won us over. She was patient with us, understood our needs and helped us design and build our dream home. She was willing to go out of her way to help us out and empowering us with the knowledge to make the right decisions ourselves. She is not hesitant to get her hands dirty to ensure everything is perfect. Her attention to detail is bar none.

It was such a breath of fresh air working with her and we see her as part of our family. It has been five years since she built our incredible home and she still regularly checks up on us to ensure everything is going well. My wife and I have nothing but high praise for her.

Cindy built my wife and I a house a couple years back. It was by far one of the greatest experiences we have had building a home. Cindy is very reliable, trust worthy, always answered all my calls no matter what time it was. She made the process easy for us.

Cindy and the rest of the C. STUMPO team you guys are simply amazing at what you do day in and day out. After meeting with Cindy this past week to show me a wonderful home that she built I was just amazed. The best thing about seeing each one of Cindy’s homes that she does for her clients is that everything is custom to how the client wants it done. See you soon Cindy.❤️

When we first met Cindy, we were thinking of adding a family-room to our existing ranch house in Newton. More than 20 years later, she has built 3 beautiful custom homes for us and we have enjoyed living in each of them for many years. She delivers on time, on budget and most importantly stands by her well build houses. I strongly recommend Cindy and her team to anyone looking to build a premium custom home.

Cindy is a top-notch builder, and goes well beyond being your builder to being your friend and part of your family. We first met Cindy two years ago when we were looking for a single-family house in Brookline or Newton with a fairly limited budget. We heard several testimonials from friends who Cindy had built homes for and we loved her houses, style and quality. However, we weren’t really in the ballpark for these expensive houses. Anyway, decided to give C. Stumpo Development a call. On the other side of the line was Cindy herself. Simple, down to earth listening carefully to our needs and affordability (or lack of). This conversation was the beginning of a wonderful friendship. Cindy listen, but really listen. Her advice may not always be the one you are looking for, but honest and always based on your best interest. She is a woman of her word and does honest business the old fashion way. She helped us find a beautiful old house that we could have never afford buying without her help. Leading her amazing team, she has renovated this old house into beautiful place that has significantly increased its value and our happiness building a life in this new amazing house. The could have never afford the cost of such high-quality renovation without her and she is always at your back call. A true rare woman for real people. Cannot recommend her highly enough.

We made the best choice in choosing C Stumpo Development to build our home in 2011. We were so thrilled with her expertise that we had her build an addition to our home in 2016. She built a gorgeous sunroom addition. Cindy is the best! We love our home and highly recommend her. Cindy takes the stress out of the process and was very professional and helpful.

Cindy is a passionate and dedicated Builder. She works tirelessly to deliver a quality home. And, she takes a personal interest in each of her clients. We have worked with her several times and doubt we would ever do a project without her.

I've known Cindy for over 12 years and I will tell you, the woman never stops working. She's not only committed 1,000% to her clients but to her family, friends and community. Cindy never stops giving and helping others, she just doesn't believe in "Off Time." She's so selfless it’s infectious and inspiring. I'm sure people constantly come at her for support, donations etc. I've yet to hear her say no to anyone. Grateful for her friendship!

After spending close to an hour with Cindy on our first call, my husband and I knew she was the one to build our dream home. Being new to this world, there were many late nights Cindy spent on the phone, walking us through the process and answering questions. We found that the staff on our project was incredibly knowledgeable and accommodating. Everyone starting from the architect to the installers held our hand with all the decision making that had to be done. The relationship between Cindy’s workers and herself was unlike anything we could imagine. We were very surprised to find that they worked evenings, weekends and even holidays. There was a schedule to be kept and it was. Cindy has her own group of vendors for appliances, tiles, counter tops, plumbing, etc., which took much of the pressure off of finding exceptional products. None of this would be possible were it not for Cindy Stumpo’s passion and dedication to her work. We built our dream home with the best possible builder.

Cindy is absolutely the best builder. Not only is she visionary, creative, attentive to details, her workmanship and follow-up are simply unmatchable. All her amazing homes are built to last multi-generations. Anyone would be lucky to own one the properties built by Cindy and her crew.

Cindy Stumpo is as genuine as it gets! Working with Cindy in the real estate market has been unbelievable- partly because she’s listened, guided and delivered on everything From A to Z. Cindy’s incredibly transparent, and will make time for anyone that wants to learn, and is ambitious. Always encouraged me from day one. It’s just been a year since we met for the first time but she’s become family to me. From real estate development projects to design and architecture resources, to life advice she’s my go to for anything! Reach out and you’ll see what makes her so special!

Cindy Stumpo and her team get the highest review for customer experience and finished product. Her commitment to quality work and to her clients is unparalleled and genuine. She is hands-on. Even years after the completion of our home, she has shown up personally on our doorstep to help us out when we call (no matter the time of day) and always makes her team of professionals available when needed. Cindy’s team share her commitment to excellence and dedicated work ethic. Cindy knows the business and leverages that experience to make the process smooth for her clients. The end result—customers that become life-long friends and a stunning home.
